how to install tox as current user?

It seems that there is a problem with installing tox as current user:

I did a pip install --user tox and it worked but in this case tox command is not installed and the usual trick of running the module via python -m tox does not work with tox.

Check the output of the pip command to see where it installed the tox binary. It's probably just not on your path. On my system, it is installed to ~/.local/bin/tox:

Installing tox script to /home/rene/.local/bin

So I can run it like this:

~/.local/bin/tox

If, for some reason, you want to use the python -m way, something like this should work:

PYTHONPATH="~/.local/bin" python -m tox

Anyway, I suggest you also take a look at virtualenv.
